  • Sanitary engineering is the application of scientific or mathematical principles with to the field of sanitation, especially in regards to its effect on public health. The term sanitary engineering is sometimes viewed as an obsolete term for environmental engineering. It is, however, more limited in its scope and is not concerned with environmental factors that do not have an immediate and clearly understood effect on public health. Areas outside the purview of sanitary engineering include traffic management, concerns about noise pollution or light pollution, aesthetic concerns such as landscaping, traffic management, and environmental conservation as it pertains to plants and animals. Although sometimes considered synonymous with sanitary science, the phrase sanitary engineering refers specifically to an applied science in which engineering principles are utilized rather than just studied or improved. Skills within this field are usually employed for the primary goal of disease prevention within human beings by assuring a supply of healthy drinking water, removing garbage from inhabited areas, and so on. Compared to (for example) electrical engineering or mechanical engineering which are concerned primarily with closed systems, sanitary engineering is a very interdisciplinary field which may involve such elements as hydraulics, constructive modelling, information technology, project design, microbiology, pathology and the many divisions within environmental science and environmental technology. In some cases, considerations that fall within the field of social sciences must be factored in as well. Although sanitary engineering may be most associated with the design of sewers, sewage treatment and waste water treatment facilities, recycling centers, public landfills and other things which are constructed, the term applies equally to (for example) a plan of action to reverse the effects of water pollution or soil contamination in a specific area.

O engenheiro sanitarista deve ter ampla formação nas áreas ambiental, de Hidráulica, de Hidrologia e de recursos hídricos, pois planeja e orienta o uso da água de bacias hidrográficas, elaborando Planos Diretores de Abastecimento de Água, de Esgotos Sanitários e de Bacias Hidrógráficas. Ele também elabora projetos de redes de água e de esgotos, irrigação e drenagem, além de projetar canais de escoamento. Este profissional também pode gerenciar a operação de Estações de Tratamento de Águas (ETA) e de Estações de Tratamento de Esgotos (ETE), que tratam águas poluídas ou contaminadas. A organização, a iniciativa e o interesse por questões sociais, ambientais e ecológicas são alguns traços de personalidade que podem ajudar o profissional a ter sucesso no mercado de trabalho. O engenheiro sanitarista pode atuar em empresas de consultoria voltadas à estudos e projetos de obras sanitárias (água, esgoto, drenagem e resíduos sólidos), na criação de sistemas de irrigação, drenagem, saneamento e bombeamento, inclusive em emissários submarinos ou subfluviais. Pode ainda desenvolver Estudos de Impactos Ambientais (EIA-RIMA), em conjunto com uma equipe multidisciplinar.
